Ok, so I've been at this for a while now trying to read up and hear sound clips. I've got it down to these 2 now. Check them out if you haven't already, I really like both of them.

1. ARK Grip

Infiniti G37 Coupe ARK GRIP True Dual Catback

2. Meisterschaft GTS

GTHAUS - Meisterschaft Performance Exhaust Systems : ver 3.0

This video only show is on the 370, but dam* it sounds good!

I know it'll be said if I don't address it; so yes I know the ARK is gonna be about $500 less....but I'm thinking it's worth the wait. Anyways, looking forward to your thoughts.

I like the look fo the Meisterschaft, but the sound is obnoxious IMO. Not fond of the look of the ARK, but the sound is smoother and less prone to draw certain unwanted attention.

Paying $3000.00+ for exhaust is just plain ridiculous. That's 33% of a forced induction system.

i think almost everyone will agree that the meister is too loud/aggressive and overpriced..

i will have to say ARK.. because i have one.. hehe Infiniti G37 Sedan with ARK Dual GRIP Exhaust System & R2C Intakes - YouTube

and also because it sounds amazing lol

i know the taste people have for exhaust notes are opinions.. but the meister sounds so dirty and loud.. i feel like the beautiful vq sound is completely lost..

he is correct. you also have amuse and akrapovic(currently no one is running this).

the ARK system as much as they dont want to admit it is a biteoff of the HKS system.

some will say the Meisterschaft is loud (in that video, the car is running high flow cats which make it louder than it would be with stock cats), but if you show your car you will get more points with the Meisterschaft than the ARK system because of the rarity on these cars. And for those saying they dont want to pay 3k for an exhaust, please never buy a M3 or GTR.....

Me and TeRRoRiFiC35 are the only 2 people running the Meisterschaft exhaust on this board.

OP_ I'm curious, why are you choosing Ark over the original HKS? I'd say get Meisterchaft then over Ark so at least you have an original system. Otherwise buy the HKS.

Let's hear some sound clips then

i'll have mine installed next month and i will post it up. I am currently the only G37 sedan with it.

You missed the point. I don't think its about the price so much... It's not a lot of bang for your buck. An M3 or a GTR already has the HORSEPOWER that these cars SHOULD have but are lacking. It's just not smart to pay 3k or more for an exhaust system which will give you minimum power when you can get forced induction and over 100+ more horsepower for just a few bucks more. You can even do a custom kit for around that same price if you are savy like that.

An exhaust for a M3 or GTR is more expensive because they are higher end vehicles.

Put another way... Why pay 3-6k for an extra 5-10 HP on these slow--- cars? LOL. Waste of money.
